Barnegat, NJ on the bay. 35/30 Rain/snow, flipping to to snow. Going to be a very sharp cutoff. I've seen this kind of storm play out before. Going to be tough to break 4 or 5 inches in this scenario.

Played with some tautog before heading back in the 3 mile line and puting a 2 man limit of stripers together really fast. Love keeping the boat in late for these type of warm winter days. Will do the seabass and cod spiel when the boat goes back in March.
-
Thanks. To my failing memory, this setup just doesnt work too well for us unless we thread the needle, but when it does, we put up some numbers. Appreciate the feedback.

43.8/35. Dropping like a stone. About 3 degrees in last half hour.

Will take it, just interested if warm air will be a problem on immediate coast if this wraps up and in a bit. I had around 43 water temp when fishing 6 miles SE of Barnegat Inlet today.

46.2/38 on the bay in Barnegat, NJ. Wind steady at around 10 knots, gusts picking up to 15-20. 12 degree drop in 85 minutes now. Noticeably drier air coming in fast with the NW wind. Had 43.7 water temp 6 miles SE of BI today while fishing.

Barnegat, NJ on the water. 47.2/41. Temp dropped 10 degrees in 75 minutes. Wind went NW at 12, and getting some gusts of clean NW air picking up. We are due for a nice 6+ event. Bird hunting should be interesting tomorrow.

Do it for sure. May be the best shot for the first half of winter. They live close to the ferry terminal? Excellent places for all angles of storm approach in Cape May. Spent many days and nights chasing coastals down that way.

I'm about 6 miles north of you, on barnegat bay. I'm ready for a good one for my pup and I to bird hunt tomorrow. When we cash in, it has rarely been from a setup like this, so I'm skeptical. Enjoy what we get. Stay off 72 tomorrow with all the geriatrics driving around in the snot.

Isn't it a bit late in the game (less than 12 hours to onset) to be even looking at the globals?
-
Topped out at 62.8 in barnegat today. Temperatures fluctuated with wind direction all day, sometimes coming off the water, bringing in the fog. Down to 56.1 now.
-
No science behind my reasoning, but I have noticed this approach from them in recent years, concerning a first possible significant snow. It seems like they understand how quickly information spreads and is overhyped at times. The first big forecast of the winter sets the tone for future general public confidence maybe? I know they don't want to get burned. Darned if they do, darned if they don't.
-
We are getting breaks of sun with the fog here, and torching at 61.8 now. Another few degrees and I'd feel like I were in florida.
-
Hey, we have our moments down here. The last decade had some interesting patterns of Northern Ocean and Souther Monmouth getting jackpots. We are do for a replay. Really looking to get my dog on some birds in the snow. Hopefully the Barnegat Snow hole doesn't visit.
-
Hmmm... back to Central Jersey Coast jackpot zone this year? Tom's River to ACY look to be sitting pretty.
-
Lock it in
-
Ah, I hear ya.

Inherently dangerous situation. These twilight tornado outbreaks are devastating, especially when they occur outside of the normal severe weather season. Very sad situation. Prayers to all.
-
Mass extinction? What do you mean exactly? I can agree with the points on deforestation and toxic pollution, but in regard to weather... there have always been extreme weather events. Look at the population explosion over the past 100 years, especially in vulnerable environments. More people, constant media and social media....just leads to more exposure. Keeping it in perspective is important, as the sky is not falling.

Had some pixie dust fall for about 1 minute while loading my boat a bit ago. No returns on radar. Barnegat NJ. Zero wind, hope the tautog bite will be on!
-
Again, whether she deserves the blame or not is a moot point. She will recieve it regardless, as she is the face of the city. The people she represents don't care who makes the decisions. They expect solutions to problems from their mayor. It's how politics work. Not trying to argue, was offering my opinion.
-
Read my other posts. Like I said, she was damned whether she made the decision to evacuate or not. And yes, her team bears some responsibility as well. Sometimes thers is no great solution. Either way, she is the face of the city, and as such, will take the blunt of the blame game no matter the outcome. Quick moving storms that strengthen quickly are always going to be a problem, even if model consensus is aligned.
-
Yea, I'm not pinning the responsibility on her solely. Orchestrating an evacuation is tedious and there are many working parts. Unfortunately, she will take the brunt of blame either way. (Damned if you do, damned if you dont situation.) She is the face of the city, and it's part of the job description.
-
Absolutely. But... when your city sits 1-2 meters below sea level, the decision to at least evacuate the low lying areas yesterday should have been a no brainer. 16 years ago should still be fresh in the minds of the mayor and her administration. There really is no excuse.
-
To repeat history a mere 16 years later is gross negligence. Good job, mayor. Anything she could do wrong, she has so far.
